Society & Culture - 19 July 2007

Why do you invent dishonest strawman arguments. I know of no one who claims anything evolved from nothing. Nor does anyone I know claim evolution proves atheism. If you feel you need to lie about what others claim in order to justify your belief, you need to examine why you are lying.

Before reading further it is worth noting note that it would be a severe blow to evolutionary theory if there had been no evidence to support the hypothesis stated below. This falsifiability is what makes evolution science (as opposed to ID/Creation)..

==============================...
All great apes apart from man have 24 pairs of chromosomes. There is therefore a hypothesis that the common ancestor of all great apes had 24 pairs of chromosomes and that the fusion of two of the ancestor's chromosomes created chromosome 2 in humans. The evidence for this hypothesis is very strong.

..that the rest of the world looks upon you like they've just sucked on a lemon..?

It's quite a leap to be so insular, only comprehending what's inside your borders, and even then only your little religious communities bubble of reality, yet claim your country is "selectively" blessed by god, and that only you and your ilk may ever carry his favour [unless they repent and become like just you of course], and be part of a corrupt, inept, political power base that props up a complete idiot who promotes greed and disharmony..

Is it hard for you to consider that there are billions of people who consider you as a theat to peace on Earth, our childrens future, and the health of the environment?
Do you feel the billions of eyes squinting with distaste at your hyper-insularity, and self centered ignorance, christian America..?

In Christian churches, what is a testimonial?

I'm reading a book, I think it's a teen book, called "Kate's Turn." It's something I found at a thrift store on lunch yesterday. Anyways. It's about this Mormon family and their trials with a rebellious daughter, and they keep referring to "what little testimonial" the daughter still has and I'm curious what they mean. Why did I pick a Christian novel to read? Coz I felt like it. :-) Now what is this "testimonial" thing, please?

Understand that The Democratic Party are going to have their first ever national gay debate in the run up to presidential elections next year. I am wondering if you could ask them just three questions what questions would they be?

I'm only asking just to know if others like me had this strange experience. Just last night I was in a deep and peaceful sleep when all of the sudden I was woken up abruptly. At that moment, a certain Hadith came to mind: "Believers who intentionally miss the Isha(Night) Prayer will have his sleep disturbed by the Angels as a recompense of his/her neglecting salat(prayer)" Well, sure enough Allah speaks the truth. It is a strange awakening because your whole body from head to toe shakes. Have you ever dreamed about falling and right before impact you awaken? Well, it is just like that except you are not dreaming at all; you're in total state of peace -or at least you were while asleep. And as soon as you wake up, your wide and fully awake as if you weren't even sleeping to begin with; a surge of energy runs through your body and you'll find your surrounding in total quietness. This experience has happened often to me, but after reading that particular Hadith I, now ,know the reason.

"(God said)I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and I will put my words in his mouth;
and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him."
( Bible) Deuteronomy 18:18.
-This bible verse indicate's the coming of the Prophet Muhammad, this is the answer to Prophet Abraham's prayer. and you still reject Islam as true religion, if the torah and gospel are not corrupt, then he would be mentioned in them, he is the unlettered Prophet making for them what is lawful and unlawful that is his role as God's Messenger. All of Prophet Muhammad's teaching's are true, just proof's to me that the bible verse's almost half of them can be considered the word of man espically the verses that mention that God is in 3 n that Jesus is the son of God n where he calls God father Jesus would call God God, Jesus is not the one they talk about in this verse thats for sure, he was raised up from a community he was born father less.

My best friend believes firmly in them. One day I was visiting her, and we suddenly heard a clanking sound that was like two metal pipes being banged together. She thought nothing of it, but I got up and looked outside. There was absolutely nothing to have caused that sound. She said she knew, it was just her little friend coming to call. She often hears knocking at her door, but nobody's there. One day she was walking through her kitchen and a cabinet door flew open and a casserole dish came flying out and shattered all over the kitchen. Now it's starting up at my house. I hear something outside that sounds like someone beating on a drum with a rubber mallet. My husband has heard it, too. I'm also getting the door knocking thing every now and then. We live right next to a cemetery. I wonder if someone's grave got disturbed. Guess I'll never know.

It's called "All The Time." I remember singing it on my way into the church at First Communion and I would love to hear it again if possible. I can't find any more of the lyrics, the artist name or mp3 online.

Some of the lyrics I remember:
God our Father looks on us with love all the time, all the time...
God our Father looks on us with love all the time, all the time...

He says I am with you all the time, he says I am with you all the time....I am with you forever, I am with you forever, I am with you forever all the time......

doesn't that imply that some of those animals evolved into other types of animals? why are many christians so against evolution until it seems to add validity to their stories?
